EPI-MINN: Targeting Cognition and Motivation in Coordinated Specialty Care for Early Psychosis: A National Comparison Study

This is a study enrolling patients receiving care for early psychosis across the United States. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The first group will use two mobile apps, computerized brain training and a motivational smart phone app, for a period of 12 weeks. The other group will participate in their regular clinical care. There will be 4 study timepoints: intake, post-training, 6-month follow up, and 12-month follow up. There is also an optional interview about experiences of loneliness.

PEPN2121 : A Phase 1/2 Study of Tiragolumab (NSC# 827799, IND# 161266) and Atezolizumab (NSC# 783608, IND# 161266) in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 Deficient Tumors

This phase I/II trial studies how well tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficient tumors that that has either come back (relapsed) or does not respond to therapy (refractory). SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficiency means that tumor cells are missing the SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 genes, which is related to having more aggressive cancers that are harder to treat. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as tiragolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

Self-Weighing for Weight Management in Adolescents Seeking Obesity Treatment: A Randomized Pilot

This study will test whether adding in daily weighing (5-7 days per week) is helpful in weight loss. In adults, it has been found to be helpful to have individuals who are obese to be more successful with their weight loss efforts if they weigh themselves at home every day. We want to see if this could be helpful in children as well. This research will last for about 12 weeks (3 months).

Determinants of Renal Structural Responses to Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) in Fabry Disease Study (LDN6702)

The effect of enzyme replacement therapy on how well your kidneys are responding to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is not clear from blood and urine tests alone, but may be more clear in comparisons of kidney biopsies performed before and some time after ERT has been initiated, and this is what we are focusing our study efforts on. The purpose of this study is to obtain your permission to allow us to study the kidney biopsy tissues (collected for medical reasons) after the regular routine studies have been completed. Through our special research measurements and additional study, we hope to be able to see and measure very specific changes in the kidney tissues from Fabry patients taking ERT. We also hope that through these studies of what happens within the kidney before and after starting ERT, we are able to reveal valuable information about the importance of factors like your age that you started ERT, the amount or dosage of ERT, and any differences seen between males and females.

MT2023-20: Hematopoietic cell transplant with reduced intensity conditioning and post-transplant cyclophosphamide for severe aplastic anemia and other forms of acquired bone marrow failure.

Although allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) is standard treatment for severe aplastic anemia, the use of the lower intensity conditioning drugs with a personalized dosing strategy, low dose total body irradiation (TBI) with dosing based on age and bone marrow abnormalities, and use of the drug cyclophosphamide early after transplant is a newer approach. We are studying whether this new approach is safer and more effective than our previous approach.

MT2021-08: Phase II, Open-Label, Prospective Study of T Cell Receptor Alpha/Beta Depletion (A/B TCD) Peripheral Blood Stem Cell (PBSC) Transplantation for Children and Adults with Hematological Malignancies

The research aspect of this trial is the use of a new machine to remove specific lymphocytes from the donor’s peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). This is called T cell receptor alpha/beta T cell depletion. This machine does such a good job at removing the unwanted donor T cells, and as a result we think patients will need fewer drugs to suppress their immune system.

Increasing HPV vaccination coverage among pediatric, adolescent, and young adult (PAYA) cancer survivors: A multilevel intervention

The purpose of this research is to test the efficacy of different interventions to increase vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV). Survivors of childhood, adolescent and young adult cancers are at increased risk of developing HPV-associated secondary cancers, but have lower HPV vaccination coverage compared to the general population. Interventions which are found to be successful in this study will be incorporated into future survivorship care to improve adherence to recommend preventive healthcare practices. All research procedures will be conducted remotely (e.g. online).

NEPTUNE: The Nephrotic Syndrome Study Network - RDCRN Protocol 6801 (NEPTUNE)

Nephrotic syndrome is a condition which affects the kidneys causing them to leak protein from the blood into the urine. Nephrotic syndrome is a disease that can improve (remission) and worsen (relapse) at different times throughout childhood. By collecting health information and laboratory samples, our goal is to learn more about these kidney diseases and find better ways to prevent and treat people with nephrotic syndrome. New knowledge will be shared with researchers and the public.

MT2023-35: A Pilot Study to Identify Risk Factors for Long-Term Functional and Pulmonary Outcomes Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Oncologic Diagnoses.

The purpose of this study is to help investigators learn more about lung problems after bone marrow transplant including what are the best methods for diagnosing lung problems and follow-up care. The lung problems that may develop after transplant varies from patient to patient, and we don’t exactly know what risk factors influence who develops them or how patients respond to pulmonary (breathing system) therapies. Also, we wish to improve how we monitor lung function and quality of life after transplant, especially in children and young adults.
